    Are you worried about defending yourself against a younger, stronger attacker? In this self defence video, we provide practical self-defence strategies specifically designed for older adults or those with physical limitations.
    We start by discussing the importance of de-escalation and ways to avoid conflict altogether. You'll learn effective de-escalation tactics that can help diffuse a potentially dangerous situation before it turns violent.
    But what if you can’t avoid the confrontation? We show you how to create a distraction to buy yourself valuable time and opportunity to pre-emptively strike. Next, we dive into the best striking techniques you can use to defend yourself, including how to leverage your body weight to increase striking power, or use improvised weapons from everyday items.
    Whether you’re older, physically limited, or just looking for effective ways to protect yourself, this video provides a comprehensive framework for staying safe in dangerous situations. No matter your age or size, these simple yet powerful tactics will help you defend yourself when it matters most.

    5.15 mins, control his mind and you control him. A trained sniper will always tell the negotiator to engage the target in conversation before he makes the shot. The brain cannot do two things at the same time. Good video.

    I love the use of attention breakers and the use of words to shift someones mind out of pattern. I went to a training session once called verbal judo, it covered a lot of this type of stuff. As an older man (63) who did a lot of judo but is now slow and soft😂, i use verbal judo now instead. A big thing you mentioned is to swallow your pride, get your ego back in it's box, and think intelligently as you work the situation. If you want to prove you are tough, join a boxing gym or get onto a judo mat. On the street its about avoiding first, then possibly surviving. (Although with a little practice its not that hard to reach into many young mens heads and drive them like a puppet. Us old blokes have been doing that for millennia!😊)

    Good training this lads, i come from a boxing back ground and then went on to street defence training (like what you show here) I can say this kind of training works, I have got myself out of many confrontations by talking and de-escalating the situations I’ve been in, when I was competing (boxing) the only thing I knew was to strike (and fast) yes it won my confrontations but it’s dangerous, I’m nearly 55 now with many niggling injuries, calming the situation down is the way to go, sometimes that’s not enough though (although that’s rare) talking to them (to take their mind of the situation) works every time, then palm strike is often enough to see it finished

    Age is not in the equatiln, jo foreman was world champion at 50 so was mohamid ali in boxing.
    2nd dont wait to be hit, get in first, thats what they teach in military. If you wait for tbe. To strike damage may be done.
    Best be aware of your souroundings, and dont put yourself in bad situation in first place, may be better advice.
    Take up a form of martial arts, may be good idea, to give confidence.

      I agree, you need to have a fence up and create distance. If you are touching someone to de escalate you are in range and can get knocked out or stabbed plus you won't see the second or third attacker because you are too close to the man in front.

      a fight is all about hard points hitting soft points... something metallic on hand turns a hard point to a harder point... every hard point is like a soft point to a harder...as much as I like the ''throat''... hitting every projected hard point with a harder is easier... and easier to explain in a court...
